“But oh! the blessing it is to have a friend to
whom one can speak fearlessly on any subject;
with whom one's deepest as
well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely.
Oh,
the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person -
having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all
right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together;
certain that a
faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and
then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.”
-Dinah Craik
